    This recipe looks and sounds so good. I can't wait to try it, but is there any specific reason that it calls for margarine vs butter? I don't usually like to use margarine when I bake, unless there is a really good reason why.

    i am totally with you kim! i actually used 'i can't believe it's not butter', the baking sticks, or you could use butter flavored crisco. but it tends to keep the crust softer than if you use butter. i have tried it both ways & i can tell a difference. you could definitely use what you have, just soften the butter of course.
